Game Writer
Life of Fly 2 is an exploration game in which players experience the world from the perspective of a fly. For the game, I wrote 13 short narrative stories that can be discovered throughout its environments.
Each story takes a different subject as its starting point, from love and creativity to technology, travel, hero worship, and the mundane routines of everyday life. The challenge was to make these observations feel as though they came from the same character while giving each location and story its own identity.
My Role
Wrote 13 short narrative stories for Life of Fly 2, each exploring a different aspect of human behaviour from the perspective of a curious but imperfectly informed fly.
- Wrote stories exploring subjects including love, creativity, technology, travel, hero worship, and everyday life.
- Developed a consistent narrative voice across stories while giving each environment and subject its own identity.
- Used environmental locations as part of the storytelling rather than simply as backdrops.
- Balanced observation, humour, and philosophical ideas within short-form narrative.
